Nirvana C++ - Nirvana Events

A Nirvana Event (nConsumeEvent) is the object that is published to a Nirvana channel, queue or P2P service. It is stored by the server and then passed to consumers as and when required.

Events can contain simple byte array data, or more complex data structures such as a Nirvana Event Dictionary.

Each nConsumeEvent object has an nEventAtrributes object associated with it which contains all available meta data associated with the event.

Constructing an Event

In this C++ code snippet, we construct our Nirvana Event object (nConsumeEvent), and, in this example, pass a byte array data into the constructor: 

std::string strLine = "Hello World";
int length = 0;
unsigned char *pLine = nConstants::encode(strLine, length);
nEventProperties *pProps = new nEventProperties();
nConsumeEvent *evt = new nConsumeEvent(pProps, pLine, length);
